Step-by-step solution

Here are the solutions to the questions:

Part a· 3 steps

The amount of money available for Medication.

  1. Determine the total ratio parts.

    The ratio for feeds, medication, and water supply is 5:3:25:3:2.
    Total ratio parts =5+3+2=10= 5 + 3 + 2 = 10.

  2. Calculate the fraction of money allocated for medication.

    Medication corresponds to 3 parts of the ratio.
    Fraction for medication =310= \frac{3}{10}.

  3. Calculate the amount of money for medication.

    Total money =Shs. 800,000= \text{Shs. } 800,000.
    Amount for medication =310×800,000= \frac{3}{10} \times 800,000.

    =3×80,000= 3 \times 80,000 =240,000= 240,000

    The amount of money available for Medication is Shs. 240,000\boxed{\text{Shs. } 240,000}.

Part b

Shs. 144,000\text{Shs. } 144,000

How much he will pay for feeds in the third installment.

  1. Calculate the total money allocated for feeds.

    Feeds correspond to 5 parts of the ratio.
    Fraction for feeds =510=12= \frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2}.
    Amount for feeds =12×800,000= \frac{1}{2} \times 800,000.

    =400,000= 400,000

    Total money for feeds is Shs. 400,000.

  2. Calculate the first installment.

    First installment =40%= 40\% of total feeds money.

    =0.40×400,000= 0.40 \times 400,000 =160,000= 160,000

    The first installment is Shs. 160,000.

  3. Calculate the remainder after the first installment.

    Remainder after first installment =400,000−160,000= 400,000 - 160,000.

    =240,000= 240,000
  4. Calculate the second installment.

    Second installment =25= \frac{2}{5} of the remainder.

    =25×240,000= \frac{2}{5} \times 240,000 =2×48,000= 2 \times 48,000 =96,000= 96,000

    The second installment is Shs. 96,000.

  5. Calculate the third installment.

    Third installment =Remainder after first installment−Second installment= \text{Remainder after first installment} - \text{Second installment}.

    =240,000−96,000= 240,000 - 96,000 =144,000= 144,000

    He will pay Shs. 144,000\boxed{\text{Shs. } 144,000} for feeds in the third installment.

Part c1121

The actual PIN the wife will use to withdraw the money.

  1. Convert the secret number 43 (base 10) to base three.

    Divide 43 by 3:
    43÷3=1443 \div 3 = 14 remainder 1
    14÷3=414 \div 3 = 4 remainder 2
    4÷3=14 \div 3 = 1 remainder 1
    1÷3=01 \div 3 = 0 remainder 1

  2. Read the remainders from bottom to top.

    The PIN is 112131121_3.
    The actual PIN the wife will use is 1121\boxed{1121}.

Part d

15 days15 \text{ days}

The number of days the same feeds will last after buying 100 more chickens.

  1. Identify the initial conditions.

    Number of chickens (C1C_1) =300= 300.
    Number of days feeds last (D1D_1) =20= 20.

  2. Identify the new conditions.

    New number of chickens (C2C_2) =300+100=400= 300 + 100 = 400.
    Number of days feeds will last (D2D_2) =?= ?

  3. Apply the inverse proportion relationship.

    The total amount of feed is constant, so C1×D1=C2×D2C_1 \times D_1 = C_2 \times D_2.

    300×20=400×D2300 \times 20 = 400 \times D_2 6000=400D26000 = 400 D_2
  4. Solve for D2D_2.

    D2=6000400D_2 = \frac{6000}{400} D2=15D_2 = 15

    The same feeds will last for 15 days\boxed{15 \text{ days}} after buying 100 more chickens.
